Looks like Ronda is rubbing elbows with a former UFC champion in to keep her ground game sharp ahead of her bout with Cat Zingano. We've seen Ronda Rousey training with Nick Diaz and with Gilbert Melendez, but now she's stepping onto the mats against a former UFC champ, in B.J. Penn. She and Penn recently rolled at the Art of Jiu Jitsu Academy in Orange County, California. It's a pretty cool video of two of the sport's most notable grappling talents facing off on the mats. Ronda even hit a prett read news >>

The UFC returns this weekend on Fox Sports 1, as UFC Fight Night 59 rolls into Boston. Headlined by one of the hottest fighters in the world, the card is deep with talent and should pull in some solid TV numbers. Conor McGregor takes on fellow European Dennis Siver in the main event in a bout that could vault McGregor into a title shot. He is easily the hottest thing in MMA right now, due to his vocal prowess and violence in the cage. It was a cold start to 2015 for me, as UFC 182 saw me pull a read news >>

Bibiano Fernandes had one goal in mind at ONE FC 23: end his recent rash of decisions. And fortunately that's just what he did.

Frustrated by fighting to decisions in each of his first four ONE FC bouts, Fernandes (17-3) fished with rene read news >>

By the time Dec. 20 rolls around, 21 months will have passed between fights for UFC veteran Dan Miller, the older brother of lightweight warhorse Jim Miller. Certainly the elder Miller is no stranger to miracles -- his four-and-a-half-year-old son, Dan Jr., persevered through a kidney transplant to survive polycystic kidney disease -- but for dad, this latest comeback is no small miracle itself. Much like record-breaking NFL quarterback Peyton Manning, escalating neck issues forced Miller to und read news >>

The interim era of Bellator rolls on, this time with one of the last tournament winners getting their title shots before the true Scott Coker reign begins.

In a sport that rolls on nearly every weekend, year-round, physical and mental burnout are very real threats. But if MMA won’t hit the pause button, could fighters benefit from carving out a break for themselves?Filed under: Featured, News, UFC read news >>

Ready for Metamoris? Not quite. UFC Women's Bantamweight Champion, Ronda Rousey, is already cleared to resume training after undergoing a minor surgical procedure on her knee (more details here). In the video above, "Rowdy" is seen rolling with The Skrap Pack Fight Team member -- and coach on The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 20 opposite Lightweight champion Anthony Pettis -- Gilbert Melendez.
